JAMMU: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Jammu & Kashmir President Sat Sharma slammed Congress for insulting PM Modi and his late mother, while he chaired an organizational meeting of Mahila Morcha leaders at the party headquarters, Trikuta Nagar, Jammu. The meeting was attended by J&K BJP General Secretaries Sanjita Dogra and Baldev Singh Billawaria, BJP Mahila Morcha President Neha Mahajan, and senior Mahila Morcha leaders and activists from across the region.

Sat Sharma, while addressing the gathering, said that the recent derogatory remarks made by Congress leaders against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his late mother during a political rally in Bihar are “shameful, unpardonable, and unacceptable in a civilized democracy.” He stressed that insulting a mother, whether living or departed, is an insult to the entire womanhood of Bharat. Congress has once again displayed its deep-rooted culture of disrespect. By dragging the Prime Minister’s late mother into politics, they have insulted every mother of this country, he asserted.

Sharma further said that the Congress has a repeated history of insulting mothers, from Bharat Mata to the mothers living in Bharat and resolved that this cannot be tolerated any longer. Sanjita Dogra remarked that Sonia Gandhi and Priyanka Vadra, themselves mothers, should be ashamed to remain silent when such derogatory language is used against another mother.

Baldev Singh Billawaria said that the Congress has crossed all limits of decency and political ethics, and its leadership must apologize without delay. Neha Mahajan stated that the Mahila Morcha will ensure that women across Jammu & Kashmir are made aware of the anti-woman stance of the Congress. BJP leaders also discussed the forthcoming party programmes with a focus on strengthening the Mahila Morcha’s connect with women across different sections of society. They emphasized that women power is central to the BJP’s organizational and social strength.
